Hi Richard,
Yes it is indexed.
Check it out here: https://www.google.com/#q=site:lavistarelatiegeschenken.nlAlso, you have over 30.000 pages indexed, are all those yours? Also, there is no sitemap. The URL declared in the robots.txt does not work
Hope it helps.

thanks, i will change that also, yes i tried also and ok
https://www.google.com/#q=site:lavistarelatiegeschenken.nl
https://www.google.com/#q=site:lavistarelatiegeschenken.be
but if you click on www.google.nl.... http://www.lavistarelatiegeschenken.nl you will see he ranks the homepage of belgium (.be) website and not index homepage of netherlands (.nl), for the netherlands first page rank is a subpage
I also did geo targeting in google webmaster tools and this tag rel=”alternate” hreflang=”x”to avoid double content
Thats strange ? I dont understand
With other sites i never had the same problem with same websites in 2 countries same language, first time.
I deleted some toxic link and after that its changed, now google sees belgium at the most important, i add the links again so than i hope its solved.
I think geo targeting and that tag works, but only not with homepage, so solution is to make both sites unique so, google will see it as two undependent websites. No social media connections and backlinks to each other, that must be help. Two different websites

Hi Richard,
I don't think that searching your exact site URL is a good statement when asking for your indexing status.
In your case, I'd go to search console and check the queries that the site is ranking in wich country.
Remember that each site must be configured by their own in Search Console. (I understand that you've already done that).and in a more accurate way, search for any keyword, that you are ranking with both sites, in both google.nl and google.be
Hope it helps.
